Saturday battery install

This morning, five students got up early in order to get a bit ahead on the Ranger conversion. It is definitely crunch time and every bit of time we can spend on the truck is that much closer we are to the goal of completion with a truck entry at the SMARTT Challenge final event on May 14th. Several items needed to be done in order to install the batteries so everyone jumped in and worked as a team to get the job done. The front battery box was installed, foam insulation was measured, cut and installed and finally, the batteries were lowered into place. Everything went perfectly and now, let the wiring begin!
